[QUOTE="Rolly, post: 653891"] Hi all, I recently finished a loft conversion and moved in, about 3 months ago. Everything is settling a bit so there's the odd paint/plaster crack, nothing to stress over... We haven't used the new bathroom because the shower was faulty and wayyyyyyy down the list of important things.. But it has some craked tiles, like about 20... Most of them go along a horizontal line at 1.2m of the floor, so when I stripped them I was not surprised to find a joint in the plywood (13mm) substrate, that hadn't been knoggined... OK, so my plan was to cut in to the ply and insert a knoggins, then screw it all back together, but... There's also several tiles cracked on a vertical line, this is again over a joint in the ply, but it's on a stud and the ply is screwed to the stud every 300mm or so. So, I'm now thinking that my plan to insert knoggins won't be enough... There's no tile board, just the ply, nothing is even damp, let alone wet (but only because we haven't been using the shower) Is there a better way to joint the ply ? Am hoping to avoid stripping the whole wall and recladding with tile board... I'd appreciate any thoughts :-) Thanks [/QUOTE]
